Known command-documentation mismatches

  • Use dotagen version to print version information.
  • Use dotagen serve --port <port> to choose the dashboard port.
  • The sync long help text names only five targets, but the command validates and accepts all eight current target IDs listed in the configuration reference.

See init, sync, and status, agent creation, skill management, and serve, update, and uninstall.
